Rio has got it all. Beaches, rainforest, granite mountains and a vibrant city life. It is no wonder that the 'Common marmoset' became an invasive species in the 1920s migrating from the forests of northeastern Brazil. Today these monkeys are so abundant throughout Rio that you practically can not miss them. The best places to meet them are Rio's Botanical Garden on the edge of 'Tijuca National Park' and the trail up to the Sugarloaf. They are very small and people admire them for their cuteness. Now, let's take a look.
Two of them on the way up to 'Morro da Urca' waiting to be fed.
Adapting to bamboo in the Botanical Garden :-)
But they are not the only monkey species in Rio. On the trail up to 'Pedra da Gavea'.
Monkey habitats can be pretty awesome.
Keep traveling :-)
wooow

Looks cute and harmless as all small monkeys, but Green monkeys Chlorocebus aethiops in South Africa were impertinent, aggressive and potentially could bite. My experience at parking near snack bar.
